The iron crown, il sacro chiodo-the
1Oly nail, as the inhabitants of MonZa
call it-was worn by Charlemagne and by
long succession Of German emperors
after him, ending with Charles Y. Napo-
leon Bonaparte was the last sovereign
upon WHOSE head it rested. With charac-
seristic audacity he put it there himself.
II was in May, 1905, that he gathered
about him at Milano the dignitaries Of tho
empire, the foreign diplomats aud his
generals. and, in the presence Of his vic
tOrious army, set the crown upon his own
bead with the words that stand engraved
on its rim: God gave il to NE. Woe unto
him who touches il.
In 1883, when the Austrians Were
driven from Lombardy, they carried the
iron crown with them, first to Mantua and
afterward 10 Vienna, where it was kept
until Venice was ceded 10 Italy by the
peace of 1865, Then it was returned to
the cathedral at Monza, and there it re-
mains still, jealously guarded with Queen
Theodolinda's other treasures and the
crown of her royal husband. New York

A Singular Coincidence.

The Rev. DIR. Schuyler tells of coinci-
dence that happened at an evening service
when he was rector of Trinity church,
Buffalo. As he was going up into the
pulpit to preach the sermon, a laSe num-
Der of people entered and seated them
selves among the congregation. The doc
tor gave out his text: Our lamps are
gone out" and preached his sermon.
When the sermon was over, the doctor
learned that the people who had entered
the church were the members of congre-
cation who worshiped in a chapel few
squares off. The gas in their chapel had
suddenly gone out, and they sought the
nearest church 10 continue their worship.
